Luminous Dawn

Luminous dawn that shined that morn Amidst my strengthened sorrow A smile bares a hidden spark To flame into tomorrow And dawn will come day and day Yet noticed it is not Among the stars and glistened haze Simplicity will rot And yet, there’s you amidst this world Amidst this crash and burn You that fuels my deepest fire Amidst my heart so stern Dawn in line with him, with you Every day a light When darkness burns into space Drawing close the night Sun is mere a different sign When I stand alone A rising of my silver soul That seems to go unknown Call me sweetly, mild, and warm We are so far gone Empower me with amber eyes Amidst the luminous dawn
